A Fair Deal

Why nlockd Doesn’t Charge a Percentage of Your Revenue

Many technology providers and platform operators charge a percentage of their clients' revenue as part of their business model. At nlockd, we believe this approach doesn’t reflect the true cost of providing technology-driven e-commerce solutions. Here’s why we think differently:

Technology Costs Are Fixed, Not Revenue-Based

The primary costs for a technology platform like nlockd are tied to IT infrastructure, AI development, and transaction processing. These costs remain consistent regardless of the price of the product being processed. Whether you're selling a €20 product or a €300 product, the cost of processing the sale – from uploading content to automating advertising – is essentially the same.

That’s why, at nlockd, we charge a monthly flat fee or a small transaction fee to reflect the actual work our systems perform, not a percentage of your revenue.

Platforms Operate Differently

For sales platforms, the story is different. They directly bring customers to your brand, and the value of a customer depends on the product’s price. A customer buying a €1,200 piece of jewelry is more valuable to a brand than one purchasing a €20 pen set. Because platforms generate sales, they often justify their fees based on the absolute or percentage value of the transactions they facilitate.

However, this logic doesn’t apply to technology providers like nlockd. We provide the tools and infrastructure, but we don’t own the customer relationship or determine the sales value.

Why nlockd Stands Out

At nlockd, we take pride in offering a fair and transparent pricing model. We don’t charge a percentage of your revenue because we believe technology should empower you to grow, not eat into your margins. Our fees reflect the services we provide, such as:

• AI-driven content optimization

• Automated advertising

• Multi-channel management

• Transaction processing

By keeping our pricing aligned with the work we do – and not your revenue – we ensure that every client gets a fair deal.
